"The relentless milieu of hard men's Edinburgh is leavened by the presence of various sympathetic women—a rarity in this strain of the genre."
The Times Saturday Review
"His hired killer must surely rank as one of the most evil spine-chilling villains ever to emerge from an author's pen..."
Dumfries and Galloway Standard

WHO SAYS REVENGE CAN'T BE FUN?
Billy McCulloch enjoyed his life as a postman until the day he ran a sword through a letterbox and ended up the wrong side of Saughton Prison's walls. Now older and wiser and back on the streets again, he no longer kills for the pleasure alone, he does it for a living.
So when obsessed hotelier Jack Rankine offers him an exclusive villa on the Costa Brava in exchange for an ex-cop's life, Billy doesn't need to think twice. Especially when the ex-cop in question is Joe Costello, the man who first put him behind bars.
"A tightly woven tale of revenge... a disturbing study of remorseless violence."
The Sunday Times"Chilling, but fiercely exciting."
Liverpool Daily Post
